You may also configure notification filters based on what kind of the change was made or specific JIRA issue properties i.e Issue Type or Priority.

JIRA issue page enhancements

On any issue page you will find Issue Tools that allow you to configure Slack notifications specific to that particular issue. In the same place you can also quickly check if there was any conversation happening on other channels about this issue.

In the Activity section on issue page (where the Comments are shown) you can also find a new tab called Slack. This tab lets you quickly join Slack discussion about the issue if the issue has got a dedicated Slack channel. You will be able to see the last 100 messages from that channel as well as directly post messages to that channel.
